Incinerate- Fire attacks do more damage when the opponent is burned

-Magmortar, Houndoom

Thermal Body- Frozen turns last half the duration (like an Early Bird for Freeze)

- Vulpix and Flareon (those with those thermal body dex entries but don't suit Magma Armor)

Compensate- Atk/Sp Atk will rise if Def/Sp Def is lowered, and vice-versa.

-Psychic/Dark pokemon

Frost Armor- Defense and Special Defense is raised during a hailstorm.

-Glaceon, Glalie

Stamina-- Does not require Charging and Recharging.

Suppression-- Like Intimidate, but reduces Opponent's Attack, Special Attack and Speed by 1 stage.

Critical Endurance-When HP is in red, can only be damaged by Critical Hit moves and nothing else.

Water Cloak: Evasion raises by 1 stage when in contact with water. Grants immunity to water-type moves. Can be given to Vapoureon.

Impatience-Attack raises by 1 stage if immobilised, eg paralyzed, frozen. Does not include sleep.

-Psychic/Dark pokemon

i can't think of any pokemon who should have these abilities, maybe it is because i got the idea from cod4 online, maybe the possible next gen will have a few nice pokemons or these abilities.

Rage - Pokemon's moves are powered up by 1.3%, but they are locked into one move for 2-3 turns like outrage is. You can't switch or use other moves.

Pokemon to have it: Ryhorphior, Weavile (wouldn't be cheap as it couldn't switch and would be countered) Primape, Houndoor.

Friendly Face - Poemon have a 30% chance of becoming attracted to this pokemon whichever nature they are.

Pokemon to have it - Dragonite, Chemicho, Blissey, Chansey
 

Grei

not the color
Supersensory: Raises Defense when Physical attack is used against Pokemon, Raises Special Defense when Special attack is used against Pokemon, raises Speed when any damaging attack is used.

Pokemon w/ ability: Riolu, Lucario


Precision: Raises accuracy and critical hit ratio of Special Attacks.

Pokemon w/ ability: Alakazam, etc.


Top Form: Raises accuracy and critical hit ratio of Physical Attacks.

Pokemon w/ ability: Machamp, etc.
 
Physical Attracton: If the Pokemon switches in on a Pokemon of the same Egg group and is the opposite gender, the foe is automatically infactuated.

Just to make to make Attract less useful.
